For years the San Antonio Spurs were known as Tim Duncan's team. Everything went through Duncan, the offense and defense along with laying down the foundation of the Spurs' philosophy of treating every player on the roster the same. He was treated and coached the same way the last guy on the bench was. The team was a slow paced team, looking to drain the shot clock as much as possible while getting a high percentage shot with the scale tipped to a defensive mindset.
